Specification of Letters Iatent.

Patented July 8, 1919.

Application filed. December 9, 1918. Serial No. 265,929.

To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, EDGAR A. Monron'r, acitizen of the United States, and a resident of New York city, in thecounty and State of New York, have invented a new and useful Attachmentfor Gloves and Gul Gloves, of which the following is a full, clear, andexact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanyingdrawings by similar characters of reference marked thereon, which form apart of this specification.

This invention relates to a new and useful improvement to be worn on theback of a glove. The object is to provide a means of holding a mirror,con'ipass, or watch, on the back of a glove in order that the wearer cansee the face of the compass and be able to tell at all times in whatdirection he wishes to travel.

The watch is conveniently placed on the back of the glove, for ready usein telling the time, by merely glancing at back of glove, and the mirroraffords the means of adjusting the hair, hat and veil at the convenienceof the wearer.

Figure 1 is a perspective view of a gloved hand showing the device.

Fig. 2 is a side view of the glove, partly in sect-ion, and

Fig. 3 is a longitudinal sectional view through the wrist encirclingportion of the glove showing the device in an open position.

Iiefering to the drawings the numeral 1 designates a. flap or tonguewhich is secured to the wrist encircling portion of a glove 2, in anypreferred manner. provided with a suitable socket l, which is idapted.to receive the stud 5, attached to the tongue, and when said tongue isfolded back in the manner illustrated in Fig. 2, it will be held bymeans of the fastening elements l and 5.

The tongue and wrist encircling portion of the glove are each pierced toreceive a threaded stem 7 of a watch, compass or mirror 3 as clearlyshown in Fig. 3. A disk 6 having an internal threaded aperture isthreaded on the stem 7 and thus clamps the This tongue is mirror, watch,compass or other article in place.

From the foregoing it will be evident that the tongue when folded into aposition as shown in Fig, 2 will completely cover the face of thearticle 3, thereby protecting the same.

Having described my invention what I claim as new, and desire to secureby Letters Patent is:

1. In a device of the class described, the combination with a glove, ofa tongue sccured near one end to said glove, the tongue and glove beingpierced, an article, a stem on the article extending through the openingin said glove and tongue, and means cooperating with the stem to securethe same in place, and the tongue being adapted to be folded over thearticle to cover the same.

2. In a device of the class described the combination with a glove, of atongue secured near one end to said glove, the tongue and glove beingpierced, an article, a stem on the article extending through the openingin said glove and tongue, and means cooperating with the stem to securethe same in place, the tongue being adapted to be folded over thearticle to cover the same, and means for securing the tongue over thearticle.

3. The combination with a glove having a wrist encircling portion, of atongue secured at one end to the wrist encircling portion, a fastenerelement at the free end of the tongue, a cooperating fastening elementon the wrist encircling portion, the tongue and wrist encircling portionbeing provided with alining apertures, a stem extending through theapertures, an article attached to the outer end of the stem to becovered by the tongue, and a disk threaded onto the stem to secure thearticle in place.
